Whether you plan to build on a narrow lot, add a studio or backyard cottage, or just want a smaller home, you’ll love our approach to designing and building small houses.

This generation is the most sustainability-focused generation ever. They’re looking for renewable energy sources within apartment blocks, sharing resources, supporting surrounding independent businesses and using green materials. Almost half of Millennials are interested in solar panels for their homes, and show a keen interest in growing their own food. Gardening is good for the environment and works well with recent healthy living trends. Expect to see more small gardens, window-box gardens, or community gardens where this generation takes up residence.

Panoramic prow fronts and walls of windows. Vaulted ceilings lined with Western red cedar. Attractive yet functional interior spaces. All these elements combine to create the Lindal Cedar Homes Classic line. The result is our signature: a mix of casual elegance and livability. It’s a style that never goes out of fashion.

A home with modern rooms is not often something that is chosen by families with younger children. The aim is to create a finish with more glass, harder edges, white and neutral colours, and art work rather than accessories. Modern kitchens are currently very popular with more metal appliances and marble finishes.

We offer hundreds of home designs and floor plans- from classic, traditional-style houses and mansions to modern urban dwellings and contemporary small homes. Our lifetime structural warranty ensures the lasting quality of your investment. Our huge selection of home designs offer efficient and customizable options and flexible floor plans.
